Brian Slevin, owner of Brickablocks, is a product designer, digital illustrator, photographer and LEGO® builder currently living in Richmond, Virginia.

He got his start designing gifts and accessories, built with LEGO® bricks, in 2013 - when a friend requested a Harry Potter themed Lamp for their nephew. Brian was a natural, applying the same principles to design that he learned during his 18 year software development career.

He now excels at creating clever, quirky and playful gifts and home accessories that range from simple key organizers, to t-shirts, and even massive mosaics and custom models. Brian's work has been featured all over the Internet, including Make Magazine, The Brick Fan, and popular LEGO® fan site Brickset. His clients include Warner Brothers Studios, Pixar Animation studios, Capital One Bank, and Art Partners Group.

In addition to product design, Brian is a talented digital illustrator and has created artwork for clothing that is featured at several major online retailers. Brian is also an accomplished developer, who started his own website featuring LEGO® news and custom model instructions.

In recent years, Brian's attention has turned to cultivating a community of LEGO® fans in the Richmond, Virginia area. He now spends much of his time designing models and planning community events in his role as LEGO® User Group ambassador for RVA LUG, a recognized member of the LEGO® Ambassador Network.
